Jodhpur Airport (IATA: JDH, ICAO: VIJO) is a domestic airport and an Indian Air Force base serving the city of Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India. It is operated by the Airports Authority of India (AAI) and shares its airside with the Jodhpur Air Force Station of the Indian Air Force.
The Government of Rajasthan signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Indian Air Force for the expansion of the passenger terminal in March 2017, wherein 37 acres of IAF land would be transferred to AAI.[4] In May 2021, it was transferred by IAF to AAI through Jodhpur Development Authority (JoDA), and the terminal was built.[5] It is the 44th busiest airport in India, handling more than half a million passengers in FY 2018–2019.
